------------------------------------------

This final assignment consists of two parts:
  1. Work further on your weakest (given the quality of the projects you have presented, a better term should be least-strong) project so that you turn it into your best one. Take advantage of the feedback that you received from me and from your classmates during that project presentation. (Each one of you and I have already agreed upon which of the projects is your weakest project.)

  2. Complete the following table summarizing each and everyone of your projects. Please prepare a slides with this information and/or post it to your webpage and send me the URL.
